Good morning Shota. 2025 off to a good start. I agree with Paul’s comment. I can only imagine the difficulty of inner planking and these look mighty fine to me. Cheers Grant

I’m impressed Shota it looks really great to me. Our cameras in closeup always seem to show apparent flaws that are only obvious to the builder. Your work is truly excellent.

My best wishes to you for the New Year. Stay safe my friend.

Hello dear friends
After almost a month that I hardly worked on the model, I returned last week with full vigor.
I finished installing 7 rows of the inner planking, I stopped here to make sure that the eighth row is correctly understood with the special parts (Tobias helped me with this).

After that I decided to take a break from inner planking and work on the nailing of the outer planking.
Thus, in the last few days I marked and drilled over 750 holes, most of them with a diameter of 0.5 mm and a minority of 0.7 mm, into which square nails with a width of 0.4 mm or 0.6 mm will be inserted.
